Decisions on Assessment and Feedback Approaches Should be Guided by a Programme Level Approach

This webspace contains case studies, commentaries and tools related to enhancing programme approaches to assessment and feedback in Irish higher education. The collection was put together as part of the National Forum’s 2016-18 Enhancement Theme which focuses on Assessment OF/FOR/AS Learning. It showcases the contribution of 31 staff and two students, from 14 national and five international institutions.

Different contributions may be of interest to people in different positions within higher education. The collection is therefore designed to be downloadable in individual files including the following:

nine commentaries

18 case studies of practice

four tools used to evaluate assessment at programme level

An overview of the collection can be downloaded (see link on the right), however the full case studies are only available on this webspace. To assist in navigating this collection, it is structured and colour-coded under four topics, as can be seen below.
